UNIMAID 2025/2026 Cut-Off Marks Released — See If You Made the List
The University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID) has officially released the cut-off marks for the 2025/2026 admission year, setting the tone for who makes it to the next stage and who has to wait for another shot.
For JAMB candidates, these numbers aren’t just statistics — they’re the gatekeepers to your dream course. Whether you have your eyes on Medicine, Law, Engineering, or Mass Communication, knowing your course’s benchmark is the first step to securing admission.
Why These Numbers Matter
UNIMAID’s cut-off marks vary by faculty and department, with separate scores for Merit (usually higher) and Other Categories.
If your JAMB score meets or surpasses the cut-off for your chosen course, you can proceed to the post-UTME registration. But if you fall short, you’ll need to explore other options or change your course before the academic session begins.
